    <dd>In CSS, the fundamental visual rendering model places all components of the
        document tree in physical and virtual rectangular boxes, each having a specific
        height and width. The dimension properties describe the details influencing
        the calculation and visual rendering of an element's line, in-line and block box
        dimensions. The actual values for an element's visually rendered height and
        width are dependent on many criteria, including the intrinsic type of the current
        element and the dimensions of the element's containing block.
